The township's public park and its heritage museum both trace to a single gift: the late J. Sheridan Stewart donated 175 acres along Tompkins Road, plus his farmhouse and barns, to Tompkins Township for perpetual public use, and the farmstead now houses the Tompkins Center Historical Society museum while the surrounding land is developed as a township recreation area.
